Now, just weeks after paying a $440 bond to be released from jail, the 20-year-old has been collared again.

Stewart was arrested on Sunday on misdemeanour charges of obstruction of a law enforcement officer as well as prowling/loitering.

Athens Clarke County jail records show that she was booked at 5:26 am on March 23 after being taken in by the UGA police department.

After paying a combined bond of $4,000 she was released from custody just before 11 am.

The new mugshot is almost as glamorous as the first with the seemingly unrepentant student once again smiling for the camera with her hair freshly blown out while wearing dark blue jail outfit.

News of her latest arrest did not deter fans with one calling her “just my type”.

Another added: “What a great smile” with a third writing on X, “she's perfect”.

Some have even repeatedly offered to pay her bail.

Her lawyer has said that the team have no comment on the latest run-in with the law.

After her first arrest, the beauty was pictured beaming in an off-the shoulder top and pearl earrings with social media users saying “she's guilty of stealing hearts”.

The student later told PEOPLE that she was “hitting 85mph in the 55 zone” and had been issued a ticket just moments before being pulled over and arrested after continuing to speed.

She had been on her way to a frat party at Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville at the time.

Despite running into trouble with the law, the sorority girl revelled in the reaction to her photo.

“I think it's hilarious,” she told PEOPLE, adding, “I look like a basic white girl and I am”.

The member of Alpha Chi Omega revealed how her followers online quickly ramped up after the mugshot went viral.

On X, one user said that “she went from viral mugshot queen to full-blown campus legend”.

At the time of writing, she has over 10,000 followers on Instagram and has seemingly joked about her first arrest.

In the latest post, she shared a picture from a holiday in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic writing: “Livin life in the fast lane these days”.

Gushing followers flooded the comment section calling her an “icon” and “legend”.

LESSON LEARNED?

However, others tried to issue a warning to the student telling her: “Please learn a lesson from your speeding incident.

“You could have killed someone. I know because a friend of mine in college did just that.

“It will ruin your life, and god knows it will ruin the victim's and their family.”

Some claimed the warning will fall on deaf ears saying “she loves the notoriety”.

The warnings to the student echoed those of Morgan County Sheriff Tyler Hooks show said after Stewart's first arrest: “She could have hurt herself or someone else,” adding that he hoped she learns a “lesson”.

He added that while his office processed her arrest, he thought she was acting “like the laws don't apply to her”.

“We should never glorify this type of behavior…I hope she doesn't get the attention like she did last time”.

After her speeding arrest, Stewart said she has to complete 20 hours of community service, write an essay on the dangers of speeding, and take a driving course.

Her attorney Stephen Morristold TMZ he got the speeding charge against Lily dropped.

She is not the first person to have their mugshot go viral, with Jeremy Meeks picture doing the rounds online following his arrest in 2014.

The mugshot racked up 75,000 likes, 20,000 comments and 10,000 shares onFacebook, earning him the name “Hot felon”.

Following his release from jail, Meeks soared to fame and became a successful model.
